Apr 15, 2010 at 13:19 | comment | added | Uthman | Clicked the 'this is a great comment' mistakenly. :P Okay here is what I understand. Correct me if I am wrong. You want me to write a C program which will setuid(0) and then run my script via system("/home/namsu/Desktop/my_copying_script") and finally I set the executable of this C code to run at startup. Right? :) | |

Apr 15, 2010 at 12:44 | comment | added | Uthman | Sorry edK but I think I did not understand your first suggestion. I have set the suid of my program using chmod +s command. Now, what will the C code do? | |
